Photocaged Dinucleoside Tetraphosphates for Light‐Mediated Activation of 5′ Cap Interactions and Translation In Vitro
Photocaged dinucleoside tetraphosphates can be incorporated into mRNA by T7 RNA polymerase. Subsequent irradiation with light activates 5′ cap interactions and translation. These 5′ cap analogs are u...
